Health First

Once you were in my arms, and now you've grown big,
alone you go to school, to learn, create and think.
 
Being independent and taking care of health,
is important as you explore this world's wealth,
 
Wash your hands before-after meals and play time,
take a bath daily to get rid of germs and slime.
 
Don't forget to brush your teeth, twice a day,
in small circular motions & gargle if you may.
 
Add grains, fruits and vegetables in your meals
and watch, how your body grows and self-heals.
 
Play games, exercise and explore the nature,
and remember to go to bed, with a dream catcher.
 
I am right here beside you, if you ever need,
To answer a question, share a secret or a deed.
 
Remember to take care of your health first,
and in your own goodness, place your trust.
